[QUOTE="mathom33, post: 292041, member: 22304"] These pictures I chose because I wanted to show an example of what the camera was focusing on vs what I wanted it to focus on without having to switch to full manual. I literally had the camera out of the box for less than 30 minutes before I started shooting some pictures of some ducks that decided to walk near my apartment. Having come across this thread with the same question, I figured I would try to get some insight as to if AF/MF would be possible. I'll have to accept the fact that it's not with my current setup (if I am understanding what others have said). I believe there were two birds in the bush fighting over a female. Today was a nice sunny day and I was able to take my dogs to my in-laws house so I could throw a ball for them. It have me a perfect opportunity to test the different focus settings and I am more than pleased! The sun was beginning to set so I went out with the idea that the pictures would not turn out the way I was expecting. I think that at its worst, the D7100 quality is much better than my last camera.
